Meeting Room

UPDATE!

Mike said to go ahead and schedule July, just alert people about the possibility of our hours changing. This is public information now, so it is OK to tell customers that we can schedule them, but let them know the hours may change.

Thank you, John

Password for the Print Release Station

When the Print Release Station computer was replaced, it was set up to require a password to re-boot the computer. The password can be found in the Reference Notebook at the reference desk.

Print Cards

Because we are not able to exchange dollar bills for coins from the Smart Money drawer, the natural instinct is to want to find another way to help customers who do not have bills to purchase or add money to print cards. However, since doing this means staff will be using their own funds to change coins for bills, and it is not always possible to do this, it is probably not a good practice to get in the habit of doing.

Keeping the Circulation Desk neat

A reminder to everyone- please try to sort books that come in while you are at the circulation desk so that the desk will be neat for the next staff member.

Meeting Room bookings

As we all know, there frequently is some confusion with meeting room bookings. Following are a few things that should help:
* When putting a booking into the meeting room calendar, please indicate with the description of the event if we have a meeting room request form or if one still is needed. The easiest way of this is to put "needs form" if one has not yet been filled out. Make sure to delete "needs form" when one is filled out.
*Please put your initials with the description of the event in case there are any staff questions about the event.
*Due to heavy demand for the room on Saturdays, please ask groups to limit their bookings to two hours.

Michelle has volunteered to oversee the meeting room bookings now that Maria is no longer here; she may come to you if she has any questions.

Hopefully what is listed above should make the process run a bit smoother.
Thanks in advance.

Computer Class Schedules

We are not able at this time to print multiple copies of the month's computer class schedules. Copies are posted on the bulletin board near the copiers, at the crculation desk,and there are two copies at the reference desk for customers to view.
I have printed out some copies of Collier's classes this month, and put them at the reference desk.
